Amazon Kindle Fire sequel may have surfaced in ... - SPARTANPIXEL
Photo: There have been surprisingly few if any concrete leaks of Amazon’s future Kindle Fire plans , even with the follow-up’s appearance likely just hours away . Thankfully, we may have been given a last-minute peek into the company’s strategy after an Engadget reader tipped us to some unusual activity in an app’s hardware usage logs. At least a pair of hits have come from a new device identifying itself as ” AmazonKFTT” instead of the much plainer “AmazonKindleFire” language attached to the original model . There’s also signs that Amazon has upgraded the OS underneath to Android 4.0.3. We wouldn’t anticipate this particular slate carrying a quad-core chip to tackle the Nexus 7 head-on, though — unless the KFTT variant is just a firmware-updated Kindle Fire with a name change, the next generation should still have at least one dual-core tablet in the range. Here’s hoping there are a few more surprises in store by the time Amazon takes the stage on Thursday.
